Just 6 days however is lower than you should see, I'd have it make a connection home and give it a night to process the data and see if it changes. It is possible for it to dip below 10 days, but when it is less than a week I'd start to suspect something is up. Check your lineup on Zap2it.com and see how far out that site goes - it uses the same TMS data source as TiVo. Also, I can't check my unit right now by the 'call' option only shows up when using a modem, IIRC. It says something like 'Network Connection' when using the network. At least on the newer OS/boxes. -- [email protected] / [email protected] Geek, Gweep, Technophile, me. www.GizmoLovers.com / www.MegaZone.org / www.Eyrie-Productions.com Hail Eris Twitter.com/megazone / Facebook.com/megazone / www.LinkedIn.com/in/megazone "A little nonsense now and then, is relished by the wisest men" 432-363-4296 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
